Chriselle Lim launched her collection at Nordstrom, Shopbop, and Bloomingdales TODAY. She’s a mom of two and her sister was my former agent at Next Models. I always love catching up with her at events and always inspired by her many ventures as a momboss. I’ve compiled some favorites below. Which is your favorite?

It’s often difficult to find an outfit that can work from business casual to drinks with girlfriends. But I found it.  I mean leggings and a baseball hat are brought to the next level with simple red lip, rope heels and the right sunglasses, am I right? Here I cannot stress enough how versatile an oversize gray sweater is with streamline leatherette pants. Because you don’t have enough lazy days, you can’t have enough cozy gray sweaters. Personally, since a whole lot of running four kids around LA is anything but smooth, I need easy separates I feel good in and work for dinner later at République. You’re welcome. Happy Tuesday!

Olive coats are the best combo of military and tailored touch for any outfit of the day. I’m loving this slouchy version as well. Casual look with jeans? Check, Grey sequin dress? Check. Its easy and chic in one look. Still out of ideas? Try this with a denim skirt and boots (now 50% off!). See more olive picks in the below widget. Happy Wednesday!

I’m sharing how I wear my Hanes bras and underwear: the boy briefs, hipsters, and comfy bras without wires – from getting ready to going out. The second installment in the series with Hanes #becomfydent.  Let’s get started, below are my 4 tips:

1. Say goodbye to discomfort. Let’s be real, most mornings, I want to stay in bed and not get into that uncomfortable ____. What is it for you? Tight jeans? Misfitting bra? A bra with an itchy tag? Take it out of your closet and bag it up. Donate the whole bag or place it in the corner of your room till you get sick of looking at it. Believe me, this works. You eventually can’t stand to look at it and then out the door it goes. Check out Hanes Ultimate Perfect Coverage ComfortFlex Fit Wire-Free Bra and Cool Comfort Hipster Panties

2. Don’t feel badly about lack of color. I own a ton of black and white. I invest and stock up on good pieces like white tops and black jeans. See them as the backbone of your wardrobe. Check out Hanes Cotton Jersey Scoop Tank (I have in white)

3. Keep it minimal. Those who follow me know that my jewelry is simple and minimal at best. Let’s be real, I’m a mom, so things get caught when I’m doing the laundry or holding a child. I like to keep it simple and not have to worry about one more thing. 

4. Take a selfie. It helps to do this before you leave the house for a last minute check of your outfit. After I take a selfie of my outfit, I sometimes eliminate an accessory, change my bag, or take off earrings. Comfort is king! Join me by sharing your comfy (and chic) look by using the hashtag: #becomfydent.                              

As a heads up, I’m partnering with Hanes for a couple months sharing how I, as a busy mom, wear comfy undergarments and tees.

All white, of course. A romantic ruffle top is just enough femininity for a structured jean. Don’t forget to add olive heels (on sale!) and a colorful bag. I’m all about small scale bags with pops of color. See my top four below:

Even though my jeans are looking more off-white these days, I’m making the case for white monochrome. And besides the fact that I drop ketchup and chocolate on myself most days, (I’m worse than my kids), all white really is as chic as it gets. Its flattering and like black, looks best when its done in monochrome with a side of sneaker and a leather jacket. You know, to keep you looking put together between the soccer practice and doctor visits.

Guys, Sam Edelman has stepped it up! Let me tell you, choosing my favorites was hard work!  Alas, I prevailed, and here are my selections: A shearling wedge bootie that doesn’t sacrifice comfort for style, and a classic fringe tall boot. I’ll also be wearing the latter with cutoffs come warmer weather. Happy weekend!

The news is out: Sperry boat shoes are now customizable! I have always wanted a navy pair, and now I can have one! I secretly love navy paired with black. It’s unconventional, and maybe that’s why I love it. So, if you’re curious how the process goes, I filled out a form and then they arrived. Complicated, huh? I also had the option of picking panel colors, tabs, thread, laces, and monogram just to name a few. How great is that? They do, however, take a bit longer than the average ship. So, make a note that shipping takes 3 weeks from order date. But as we all know, that which is worth having is worth waiting for.
